I'm obsessed with corn right now. I just can't seem to get enough. Grilled on the cob, in salads, in salsas, in cookies. Wait… in cookies? Yep, you heard me. You read me. In cookies. I love when sweet little kernels of corn pop up in cornbread, so I thought "hey, why not in a sugar cookie!?" And you know what? It works, people, it works! I mean, you can eat these cookies as a vegetable side dish. You're welcome.

I used a tried and true chewy sugar cookie recipe, and just folded in some fresh-from-the-cob white corn kernels. When the cookies are warm, the corn is a little weird and like "why is there cooked corn in my cookie?" But once they cool, the corn adds a perfect little pop of sweet freshness.
